Best time to visit Mabel Lake Provincial Park
July and August are the prime months for RV travel, with warm lake temperatures, open beaches and fully operational campgrounds. Temperatures are warm in the summer but rarely extreme, making this a great campsite for those who prefer a cooler locale than the Okanagan Valley. Late June and early September are quieter shoulder options with cooler nights and fewer crowds, and wildlife viewing is especially good in the spring and fall. Winter access is limited and campground services are closed outside the operating season.

Things to do at Mabel Lake Provincial Park
- Swimming at the main sand beach EasyRV parking available
The park's main day-use beach is the centerpiece of summer activity at Mabel Lake. A very large fine sand beach provides a place to warm up and dry off or relax in the sun, separated from the lawns of the day-use area by cottonwood trees and easily accessed from both the day-use parking lot and the Trinity Campground. There are no lifeguards on duty in BC Parks. bcparks.ca/mabel-lake-park/
- Changing Rainforest interpretive trail EasyRV parking available
A short, family-friendly walk that explains the park's unusual interior-rainforest ecology. The 1 km Changing Rainforest self-guided interpretive trail winds through shaded forest carpeted in moss between the campsites and the main road, passing through maturing second growth western red cedar, hemlock and some Douglas fir, and takes about 30 minutes. bcparks.ca/mabel-lake-park/
- Boating and waterskiing on Mabel Lake EasyRV parking available
Mabel Lake's boat launch gives RV campers direct access to one of the Monashee region's largest lakes. There is a concrete boat launch that slopes gently into the lake located at the southern boundary of the park beside the Mabel Lake Marina. Mabel Lake is a good spot for waterskiing, and the boat launch facilities are sufficient for a variety of boats. bcparks.ca/mabel-lake-park/
- Paddling and kayaking the shoreline ModerateRV parking available
The lake's long, forested shoreline is a rewarding paddle for canoes and kayaks launched from camp. This is a fairly large lake, 35 km long, and subject to sudden weather changes, so paddle near shore and explore the extensive shoreline if the weather is poor. bcparks.ca/mabel-lake-park/
- Fishing for rainbow trout EasyRV parking available
Mabel Lake is a well-known trout destination easily fished from shore or boat. Mabel Lake is a fisherman's destination park as several local fishing derbies are held in the park each year, and it is not uncommon to find a handful of fishermen enjoying the peaceful spring months, fishing off the beach. Opportunities for rainbow trout are available here year-round. bcparks.ca/mabel-lake-park/
- Wildlife viewing at Taylor Creek EasyRV parking available
The park's forests and wetlands support a surprising variety of wildlife close to the campgrounds. Squirrels often visit the campsites and painted turtles can be seen at Taylor Creek, and deer, black bears and moose can be seen occasionally as well as a variety of birdlife and water fowl. Wildlife viewing is especially good in the spring and fall. bcparks.ca/mabel-lake-park/
- Monashee Campground beach EasyRV parking available
A quieter alternative to the main day-use beach, reached on foot from the Monashee loop. Another smaller beach is next to the Monashee Campground; the sand is more coarse but it is still a great spot for swimming, and both areas are marked with buoys. bcparks.ca/mabel-lake-park/

How to get to Mabel Lake Provincial Park
From Vernon, take Hwy 6 east to Lumby, then turn north onto Mabel Lake Road and follow the Shuswap River for 36 kilometres on paved road plus 1 kilometre of gravel road to the campground, for a total distance of 60 kilometres from Vernon. RVers should take the final gravel section slowly and watch for wildlife, farm traffic and narrow shoulders on Mabel Lake Road; there are no tunnels, but grades climb as the route leaves the Okanagan toward the Monashee foothills. Kelowna International Airport, about two hours south by road, is the most practical fly-and-rent gateway. Sites consist of medium to large gravel spurs that have been raised and levelled, though the abundance of trees may make parking difficult for some large RVs.
